Chateau Figeac 2008

Château Figeac 2008 represents a classic, expression of Saint-Émilion, emphasizing finesse over power. The nose is complex and evolved, offering layers of red and black currants, wild cherry, and plum, intertwined with hallmark Figeac notes of graphite, cedar, tobacco leaf, and subtle herbal tones. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and precise, with vibrant acidity that reflects the cooler vintage and supports graceful aging. The tannins are fine and well-integrated, providing structure without weight, while flavors of fresh fruit, mineral tension, and restrained oak carry through to a long, elegant finish.
